PBA Trade Approved: Raymundo and Reyes swap (Ginebra - Meralco trade)

PBA Trade Alert: Ginebra, Meralco Swap Raymundo and Reyes 

BGSM and Kerby Raymundo officially parted ways as they dealt the big man to Meralco for Jay-R Reyes. The trade rumors had been ongoing 2 months ago where Raymundo has seen limited minutes with Ginebra despite its big men problems.

He would not have a hard time with Meralco as he will be reunited with his former coach, Ryan Gregorio to whom he shares 3 championships when he was still with Purefoods. 

“Kerby brings a lot of ‘positives’ in our dynamics. He knows how to win and he still has a lot of good basketball left in his tank,” Gregorio said.

The Meralco coach also thinks that Kerby will be able to mentor Rabeh Al Hussaini whom they acquired in a recent trade.

Reyes meanwhile will be with his fifth team after stints with Welcoat/Rain or Shine, Air21 and Alaska and Meralco. His presence in the hardcourt seems to be important for Ginebra as Reyes does not clog the shaded lane and can shoot jumpers.
